Hi all,

I got a XML like

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<A>

    <B1> </B1>

    <B1> </B1>

    <B2> </B2>

    <B2> </B2>

    <B3> </B3>

</A>

How can I count the sum of all <B1> and <B2> nodes?

count(count(/A/B1) and count(/A/B2)) --> 1 which is wrong
count(/A/B1 and /A/B2) --> 1 which is wrong

correct would be 4

Thanks
Regards
Mario

Hi Mario,

Try this:

Code: Select all

count(/A/B1 | /A/B2)

using "|" you can concat two (or more) node sequences.

Got it:

count(/A/B1 | /A/B2)
